Barely Human

They may look and speak like us, they're not human at all...

A meteor has hit the planet, you're a young man who wake up in his dirty apartment while the city is in chaos and strange humanoid creatures are invading the streets. With a simple gun, try to find your way to the building's exit without getting killed by these "Replacers"....

Barely Human is a short horror game, inspired by retro playastation games like Resident Evil, Silent Hill... With fixed cameras, an uncanny feeling and a slow main character. This project was an occasion to experiment on how to make a horror game without any jumpscares, and instead a strong feeling of dread. Enjoy!

A archive of the executable is available if the webgl is not working. The build is not working well on Microsoft Edge.
